Holiday Millionaire Raffle Sales Reach Halfway Mark!

TOPEKA, KAN. – The Holiday Millionaire Raffle game is generating excitement with players looking to win $1 million on December 31. In just ten days, ticket sales have reached the halfway mark with 75,000 tickets remaining. Only 150,000 Holiday Millionaire Raffle tickets will be sold, giving Kansas Lottery players their best chance ever to win $1 million!

“Having sold half of the tickets in the first 10 days reaffirms our belief that our players are really enjoying this game,” said Executive Director Ed Van Petten.

There are also other amounts available to win in this Kansas-only game, including five $50,000 prizes and five hundred $500 prizes. Each Raffle ticket costs $20. Sales of Raffle tickets will continue until the game is sold out, or until December 30, whichever comes first. The drawing will be held December 31.

The Kansas Lottery would like to remind all players to sign the back of their tickets immediately and put them in a safe place. Players must retain their original Holiday Millionaire Raffle tickets to claim a prize.
